The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Yes I Was Madly In Love But That Was Yesterday by By Kilian is a Leather fragrance launched in 2018, part of a collection inspired by the complexities and bold declarations of love. The scent opens with raspberry, adding a sweet and fruity contrast to the smoky leather base note. At its heart, white tobacco adds a subtle warmth that transitions between the bright top notes and the rich base.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers to allow the raspberry top note to mingle with the smoky leather base gradually. It projects best close to skin rather than filling a room, making it ideal for intimate settings.
